Spring is right around the corner (unless winter hasn't started yet) and that means Tech Day at Main Street Automotive!

Everyone will be cleaning the dust off their
cars and getting them ready for a great Miata season.

This will be a hands-on day for all those who
like to do their own work or who want to learn from watching
others work on their/your car. This is also a great opportunity
to get help installing things like CB radios, air horns, intakes,
etc. from those members who have done them before.

Bob, Dave, Steve and Chris will all be
available to help you with your parts installation. We request
that all work be done with our tools to avoid confusion over
ownership.

If you need a dent or ding repaired Dent
Wizard will be at the shop (Please call for
appointment)

The fun will begin at 8:00 AM. Coffee
and donuts will be waiting. Pizza and soda will be served at
noon. All attendees are asked to contribute $5.00 toward the
purchase of food. We plan to wrap up around 2:30 PM followed by a
run to Rota Spring Farm for ice cream.
